Green Envy (Sin 2)

“Nothing is enough to the man for whom enough is too little.” ~ Epicurus

At what age did I begin to question everything? Even I, Donavan Sherman, am unable to answer that question. As far back as I can recall, I saw the world not through the rose-colored glasses of others—the spectacles worn by those who see what surrounds them and are satisfied—but through vision hued by green.

Life took me along a journey that didn’t sugar-coat the world; it opened my eyes to the true qualities of green—greed, illness, and envy. After all, even Disney surrounds their villains in green smoke. That green hue created the realization that there is always more, always better, and never enough.

I saw, I coveted, I took, and I conquered.
I found.

Finders keepers.

Finding Julia along the side of the road, began my thirst for her. With each passing day, I need more of her and her world. Nothing will stop the burning desire she’s refueled inside me with the aid of green envy.
